Thanks Mikey, I shouldn't use waxoyl as a term when its a product. I mean I'll get it checked underneath and deal with anything thats a bit gross under there smile

I think there is dinitrol and several other products out there these days (no idea on compatibility though)

I had those wheels on my last and they can be a sod to clean. I eventually took them off polished them properly with g-techniq polish and then applied their wheel sealer. What a difference. They basically then just leaned with a pressure hose.

True though it may help prevent salt/water ingress ?

Would it though? The old days of waxoyling was just a coat of tar really, if it doesn't block up gaps then what can it do? Is it just a silicone style coating?

It's a wax rather than a tar and does erode -not sure it would make much of a difference
I try to avoid Silicon as is it a nightmare on any thing other than rubber seals
BR are going to "lube my bushes" for me when tehy get hold of my car the caster bushes are know to seize due to salt/water ingress
